~ STOLEN HORSE.

On Monday night of last week, horse was
stolen from the stable of DR.. VIM. G. Campbell
of McConnellsville, in this county. The thief
who proved to be negro named Dave Darby,
was traced to Charlotte, n. c., where on Tues
day evening he traded the horse to a countryman
for mule, "but on such terms as to arouse sus-
picion as to the ownership of the animal"
Late in the evening Captain Stitt, chief of the
Charlotte police, receiveda communication from
Chester, requesting him to look out for stolen
horse. The description Tailed with the horse
that the negro traded off, but the party who Sc
cured the horse lived in the Philadelphia neigh
borhood (Mecklenburg county, and left the city
as soon as the trade was made. The mule that
was given in exchange for the horse was htched
in a back lot in the city, and the police kept
watch over it until midnight. Some country
men were camping in the lot where the mule
was left, and about twelve o'clock at night an
officer took the mule in charge, telling the
campers that the owner could secure it by call
ing at Wadsworth 8 stables. About nine clock
Wednesday morning the negro called tor the
mule, when an officer was sent for who took
him in charge and locked him up. Darby is an
old offender, having been convicted in April,
1885, of York Sessions Court, Of the crime of
housebreaking and larceny, and sentenced to
the penitentiary for one year.
On Thursday DIR. Campbell arrived in Char
lotte. He did not find his horse, but he did find
bride and saddle which he identified as his
property. He returned with the thief, who was
lodged in the Jail at this place. Of subsequent
proceedings by which DR.. Campbell endeavored
to regain possession of his horse, the Observer of
Saturday says:
